AND WELCOME BACK. THE HEAT WAVE CONTINUES. LAKE TAHOE, A SPOT THAT MANY PEOPLE WILL HEAD TO TODAY TO GET RELIEF FROM THE HEATOF COURSE, THE HEAT WAVE OFFICIALLY COMING TO AN END LATER THIS WEEK, BUT EVEN THE HIGH COUNTRY SAW 90s OVER THE WEEKEND. SO DEFINITELY COOLER UP THERE AND IT WILL CONTINUE TO COOL DOWN AS WE HEAD INTO THE FOURTH OF JULY WEEKEND. OF COURSE, THE HEAT IS ON AND THAT MEANS IT'S OFFICIALLY SAND ALLEN IS. BEFORE YOU HEAD TO THE NAIL SALON TO GET THAT PEDICURE, THERE ARE A FEW THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW FOR SAFETY SO YOU KEEP YOUR PRETTY TOES, RIGHT? CHRISTIE UNDERWOOD IS HERE TO TALK ABOUT NAIL SAFETY. SOME PEOPLE MAY LAUGH WHEN THEY HEAR THIS. 90. NO. IT'S SERIOUS. VERY SERIOUS. AND YOU HAVE PICTURES OF A PAINFUL INFECTION. YES, SERIOUS SCARRING AND INJURIES CAN OCCUR. SO WHAT ARE THE POTENTIAL DANGERS OUT THERE? YOU CAN GET AN INFECTION IF THE TOOLS HAVEN'T BEEN CLEANED PROPERLY OR IF THEY'RE USING TOOLS THAT ARE ILLEGAL. WHAT CAN WE DO IF WE'RE JUST WALKING INTO A NAIL SALON? HOW CAN WE BE SURE THAT THEY'RE TAKING THE PROPER PRECAUTION. LOOK AROUND. MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE SEEING SPA CHAIRS CLEANED AFTER EACH CLIENT. THEY HAVE TO BE CLEANED FOR 10 MINUTES. SO YOU SHOULD HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO SEE IF THEY'RE CLEANING. ALL THE TOOLS THAT THEY ARE USING SHOULD BE CLEANED. I'VE WALKED IN BEFORE AND THERE WERE EMPTY TUBS, SO YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT WAS DONE BEFORE YOU GOT THERE. WHEN YOU SAY CLEANED FOR 10 MINUTES, DOES THAT MEAN A SOLUTION SITTING IN THERE OR IS IT A SPRAY? IT'S A SOLUTION THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN SITTING IN THERE WITH THE SPA CHAIR RUNNING FOR AT LEAST 10 MINUTES. SO THEY HAVE TO KEEP A LOG. YOU CAN ASK TO SEE THE LOG. GOT IT. SO THERE'S A LOG. AND WE SHOULD NOT BE EMBARRASSED OR SHY ABOUT SEEING THAT LOG. NO. AND IF THEY'RE DOING IT PROPERLY, THEY SHOULD WANT YOU TO ASK. I THINK TOOLS ARE EASIER TO SPOT. THEY USUALLY PUT IT IN A SOLUTION. THAT'S WHAT YOU WANT TO SEE THEM DO. WHAT TOOLS SHOULD YOU NEVER LET SOMEBODY USE ON YOUR FEET OR HANDS FOR THAT MATTER? A RAZORDGED TOOL. THEY CAN SMOOTH THE CALLUSES, BUT CANNOT USE A RAZOR EDGE TO REMOVE THEM. SO SOMETHING THAT YOU WOULD HOLD IN YOUR HAND THAT YOU DO THIS AND YOU'VE SEEN THE INFOMERCIAL, THEY SHOULD NOT BE USING THAT? EXACTLY. SHOULD NOT. WHAT ARE SOME OF THE SIGNS THAT YOU THINK YOU MAY HAVE AN INFECTION? HOW DO YOU KNOW? WHAT ARE THE SIGNS AND WHAT SHOULD YOU DO? YOU SHOULD SEE A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL. AND IT COULD BE LESIONS ON YOUR LEGS. THEY COULD BE INFECTED. POSSIBLY TOENAILS AND FINGERNAILS. ARE THERE ANY THIS PICTURE HERE, THERE ARE SPOTS ON THE LEGS, THINGS LIKE THAT. WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR, RED SPOTS? THAT'S HOW THEY START. THOSE TURNED WORSE, WHERE YOU MIGHT HAVE TO BE AN ANTIBIOTICS. THEY WILL TURN INTO OPEN SORES SOMETIMES THE SIZE OF A QUARTER. SFWL THANK YOU THANK YOU. WE APPRECIATE IT.
